Jesus' Return (for the Rapture of all who belong to Him) is Very Near
The Bible at Bible.com ^ | Today Feb whatever it is, 2010 | self

Disasters - earthquake, Tsunami, others - happening rapidly now.

Read Matthew 24. There will be earthquakes.....etc.

When we see these events occurring in increasing frequency it is because these are the "birth pangs" that we have been told by Jesus Christ Himself - would happen closer together in time as do the birth pangs of a woman in labor. The closer she gets to giving birth, the worse the birth pangs become and the closer together they come.

LOL - yes well God has a sense of humor, doesn’t he?

He’s keeping it cold until the world repents of that global warming religion/myth - and throws Algore somewhere - in the ocean? I don’t know. (No I am not suggesting that literally be done - God is taking care of Algore himself. You do notice he’s been unable to be found lately, don’t you?)

The increasing frequency of these events is a clear sign that His return is very very near!

My family and I were talking about this very thing this evening. I have no doubt about it.

None of us is good enough - except as a new Creation in Christ. That’s the beauty of it.

10’Thus says the Lord GOD, “It will come about on that day, that thoughts will come into your mind and you will (T)devise an evil plan,

11and you will say, ‘I will go up against the land of [a](U)unwalled villages I will go against those who are (V)at rest, that live securely, all of them living without walls and having no bars or gates,

12to (W)capture spoil and to seize plunder, to turn your hand against the waste places which are now inhabited, and against the people who are gathered from the nations, who have acquired cattle and goods, who live at the center of the world.’

Ezekiel

Your absolutely correct. Jesus spoke of the days of Noah that people were being married and eating and living their lives.
That married part is interesting because the Talmud said that in the days of Noah those people were having homosexual marriage. And we know what happened to them.

You can LOL all you want but He’s coming and it will be sooner than later

if that is the case, and it might well be, there is nothing we can do about it.....relax, convert to Catholocism so you’ll belong to the religion He founded, and enjoy the hereafter!!!

Yeah, that’s the first time that has been predicted to happen “soon”

You are so right. On the other hand, sooner or later, somebody's going to be right :-)

I hear you, I’m not a good enough man either, was born and raised in a Christain home, somewhere along the way I wandered. Thank the Lord that he is gracious and merciful and forgives us, and that the ultimate sacrifice has been made. However much longer I have, I am working on improving my relationship with him and my families’.

There DO seem to be a lot of Wars and Rumors of Wars.
Earthquakes in diverse places,
People calling good “evil”, and evil “good”.
People being “Lovers of self rather than Lovers of God”
Jerusalem being a burdensome stone to all nations.
All the nations of the world gathered against Jerusalem.

AND

An Obamanation of Desolation in the White House.(forgive me, a little pun)

If these are not the last days, they are a very good Dress Rehearsal.

I still believe we can be pulled from the edge of the precipice with prayer.

There are so many who have not yet called out to the LORD.

Don't take all the ridicule personal. It happens to all that start rapture threads here. Lots of diversity here when it comes to religious denominations and how the Rapture is viewed.

For me It don't take increased Earthquakes to convince me that the clock is ticking towards Midnight. Things are moving way too fast not to see that something has been set in motion during this last year or so.

Well, pissant, you got us. Now I don't happen to completely agree on the date of the Rapture--I don't believe that the passage he cites refers to events that affect the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ. But I do believe that the Rapture will happen. It could happen soon. The matter is really this: if this brother should be correct and the Rapture does happen soon, are you prepared for the return of the Lord? So, pissant, you got us. The Rapture may not happen soon--as far as Scripture is concerned, it could happen thousands of years in the future. It could happen very soon. But if it does happen soon, are you spiritually prepared and qualified to participate in it? Spiritually qualified means that you have confessed that Jesus Christ is Lord with your mouth and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead. If we're wrong, then you have nothing to be concerned about. But if we're right, then what?

It is true - and you don’t have to be a good person to go to Heaven when you die or to go up with Jesus when He comes to take all those who belong to Him UP before the terrible events of the Great Tribulation start to happen.

(these are just the birth pangs leading up to that horrible time)

In fact, we know that Jesus died for SINNERS and that’s who He is calling to come to Him - and when you do - He will in no wise cast you out - but He will give you the new birth, (yes, you will be born again - not like Jimmy Carter but like James the brother of Jesus who first thought Jesus was CRAZY and told his other to keep Him locked up when Jesus first started healing people and teaching people. Read the book of James which his half brother wrote - and see the transformation that happened in the life of this person who became the head of the first Church in Jerusalem).

AP now saying the Tsunami has now hit Japan but first waves are small - praise God - He is keeping the Tsunami from being that bad in Japan.

I’d be careful about misleading folks, the bible has some very stern words about that.

Catholism is a lot of man made rules and such. I’m not saying some catholics aren’t christain, but the bible talks about the city built on seven hills who will seduce many with her power and wealth (Rome).

Christainity is not a religion, it’s a faith in Jesus Christ who died on the cross for our sins and said, the only way to the father is but through him. No confessions to a priest will save you, or idoltry to the virgin mary, we are to worship God alone.

You may be right, and you very well may be wrong. The prophecies of Christ’s return are extremely difficult to interpret correctly. Earthquakes alone are insufficient to definitively predict the timinig of His return.

Live like He’s coming tomorrow — plan like He’s not coming for another millenium.

What “clouds” are you talking about? I’m confused, I thought that the anti-christ would be apparent, there would be a mark of the beast(most likely an RFID chip) which hasn’t happened yet. The third temple hasn’t been rebuilt, etc. etc. Are earthquakes and famines and war really increasing in intensity? It doesn’t seem like it.
